Cudos and well done. I only have 11k more than you.
Got my new lenses looking right with LED bulbs today. 😁
I used Sylvania LED bulbs. They were pricey but worth it. Thay also gave a lifetime warranty.

I had considered using LED bulbs for headlights but there were so many mixed reviews that I decided to just stick with a halogen bulb of the shade of white that I thought gave me the best visibility. I bought a cheapo set off eBay for $9 and I'm satisfied with them. Sylvania does offer a nice set of white halogens but I'm gonna wait until I upgrade the headlight lenses to get those.
Thanks btw. 👍

That looks familiar

Take a look at my Osram retrofit thread

I actually read that a while back.
What I did was install a flasher module that would accept LED bulbs so I wouldn't have to modify anything. My setup is plug and play.

Probably the least exciting post ever, but I installed a new OEM gas cap today. And so begins my journey down the P0440 rabbit hole. 🤤

Brought home junk yard find goodies. Perfect timing too since I just used up my "spare" dash bezel and defrost vent when I did my heater core lol






Also got in a giant box of packing peanuts!






And within all those was my new winch mount













Suppose to be a direct bolt on where the factory tow hooks mount. Going to play with it this weekend and see how much it interferes with my brush guard. Would like to keep the brush guard along with it and possibly weld the two together for one big solid assembly.
